re: Atlanta area posters. Do you like the Buck Belue show in the evenings or the mornings?
Posted by VinegarStrokes on 2/24/26 at 2:31 pm to GoGators1995
680 has basically treated Belue like Milton from Office Space. They can’t really fire but they keep demoting him to worse time slots. He use to be afternoon drive, then they bumped him to lunch time, then they bumped him to 10 AM and cut his time to 2 hours, then they fired Kincade and took another hour off of Buck’s show, then they moved him to 7 pm which no one listens to and isn’t even an available time slot during baseball season ??

I think his point, and the reason he’s laughing, is that you said “it’s the best cast since 40”….and with this being season 42 there has only been one other season since 40. Hence, he’s laughing because it was kind of a ridiculous thing to say

Buck Belue is awful. He doesn't know how to have a conversation with a cohost and will either zone out or talk over them and interrupt. Also...his sports takes are as shallow as Steak Shapiro's vag.

lol such a dumb comment. They are making the game for whoever is willing to buy the game. I bought the games and am free to comment on the aspects of gameplay that I find unappealing.

Don't most medium sized cities have an ice rink for kids to play?
Funny that roller hockey facilities are even less common now
there was a large facility in Alpharetta that had 2 full sized rinks inside the building. Last time I went was probably 3 years ago. In one rink there was public skating, and the other rink had youth teams practicing (older youth...probably kids 13-17). That facility was recently closed down and repurposed to an indoor pickleball facility.

as well just general having bad game design in places like being able to infinitely heal with food.
I know a lot of folks bitched about weapon degradation, which I understand but it didn't bother me at all. I enjoyed using different weapons over time anyways and this mechanic helped me mentally resolve the fact that I need to be varied.
What I really hated was the crafting and cooking bullshite. Listening to that damn little clip of music everytime while I made a recipe was so obnoxious. Great game, but that was the thing I wish would die in a fire. What's wrong with doing crafting like in Elden Ring where you do it instantaneously?

With all of those flaws getting to explore hyrule abd find all of these cool areas and Easter eggs and potential things you could make theories about them laying groundwork for an amazing sequel will always be a peak experience for me. I am in the minority here most likely but I do really like the structure and delivery method of the games narrative and think it’s pretty solid, it’s not in the top half of Zelda game stories, but solid. And I really like how it’s told.
I particularly enjoyed the stupid theory that Hyrule and Boletaria were the same place :lol:

There’s no other way to explain the bizzare choice of tears of the kingdom, a game I did not enjoy and isn’t good. You don’t literally remake the same game basically with the literal same map 1 for 1 and not address any not even ONE of breath of the wilds many flaws if you don’t think think you have perfected it or you’re just a delusional person. Oh and this took them like 6 years to do. It’s utterly bizarre
As someone who spent countless hours searching every nook and cranny of the BotW map, I agree here....I couldn't even finish Tears of the Kingdom. The underworld mechanic (I don't even care enough about it to go back and remind myself what the area is actually called lol) and the building mechanic fell flat for me personally. I watched all these videos about people getting creative with their builds and I simply couldn't have cared less about it when I actually played the game.
I'm hoping that this open world concept was a 2 and done for the series and that they try a different formula for the next one.

It was late and I only made a few attempts at him before calling it a night.
I took care of the True Corrupted Monk yesterday and I had a similar take about that fight that you have with Owl Father. I initially panicked due to it needing 3 death blows, but once I figured out that her second phase was very easy and that the shadows are simply doing a 1-2-3 attack that is easily deflected, it became a very easy fight

Like I said, I’m up in the dojo after the invasion of the castle. Just beat the mini boss there…Jinsuke I think. Turned it off for the night but assuming there’s a boss up at the top again where I fought Genichiro the first time for real.

I’m not too interested in making it harder. It’s more than enough challenge for me and I’m fine with it.
For prosthetics I typically run around with the spear, axe, and shuriken, but switch to the flame thrower, firecrackers, and umbrella for boss fights. I used the poison blade when I first got it but wasn’t making too much progress with it and gave it up.

Let me rephrase…when I posted earlier about having trouble with the seven spears dude it was because at the time I was still struggling with my reflexes in regards to mikuri versus jump off the head counters. I’d recognize the counter correctly but still do the opposite. I’ve long since conquered that and defeated him. Beat both Guardian Ape fights and beat the mini boss up in the Ashina Castle Dojo (after it was taken over by some other clan of dudes) and I’m heading back to the rooftop again. Kinda annoying having to go back through the castle to re-activate the idols but kinda cool at the same time. Neat way to change the environment. Making good progress and having a blast

This industry is a fricking shite show for a ton of different reasons. There are good games that come out but they are way way way more few and far between than only like a decade ago.
So many people have so many different motivations and reasons in the industry from devs wanting to put propaganda to execs wanting to leach players dry of money to massively bloated teams and way more.
It needs at least a partial crash and reset. AAA does at least. They’re so far out of touch it’s insane
Just to not be a doomer some games like RE9 Phantom Blade Zero and a few others coming this year look very good. The state of play had some good stuff. Then the chuckle fricks follow that up with shuttering blue point. Close bungie instead maybe?
I dunno man...they used to churn out a high volume of shite games back in the day. Especially in the NES era where they would basically resuse assets and reskin games (Duck Tales, Chip n Dale, Darkwing Duck....as one example). It's more visible now because of the internet and social media, but there was a LOT of dreck back in the 90s and 00s.

Thailand seems built for this show. You could basically alternate between Thailand (for the heat, humidity, bugs, and beach) and Chile/Peru/Argentina for the mountains and rivers. I'd personally stay away from the desert locales...they aren't super interesting to me.
